About this game

Auf Achse puts you behind the wheel of a long-haul truck, criss-crossing the map to pick up freight and deliver it before your rivals beat you to the good routes. Contracts go to auction, so the juiciest loads cost you more than money, they cost you position, and a lucky roll can turn a short hop into a detour across half the board. It is a cheerful throwback to the golden age of German trucking shows, light on rules and heavy on the small triumph of nailing a delivery run. Simple enough for a family table, competitive enough that everyone will remember who won.
